I'm worried about taking statins and side effects

Hi. I put it into AI.

Because dents without pain are not typical of statin effects, it’s worth:

- Mentioning it to their clinician
- Getting a quick exam
- Possibly checking a CK (creatine kinase) level if the clinician thinks it’s relevant

This isn’t an emergency — just something to get evaluated so nothing is missed.

I couldn't take statins (tried 3) and Nexletol due to body severe pain and weakness. PCSK9 gave me a scary allergic reaction. I am going to try Zetia again without statins to see if I can take it alone.

Good luck!

@kallettla I’m also statin intolerant but I’ve had some good results from a supplement called Durable Heart. Recent lipid tests showed a significant decrease in LDL and triglycerides.
